How will users understand what happened to their good old torsmo, which used to work fine for months but suddenly disapeared after an "emerge -u world"? I think it would be better to package.mask it with some comment like "Deprecated, masked in favor of app-admin/conky", because that's something emerge reports when it makes world updates fail (whereas package moves are absolutly silent and implicit). In short, for me it's just like any other package deprecation, because actually the "same code base" argument doesn't really matter from a user point of view. -- TGL. -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
